Dr. Ronny Jackson, the former White House physician now running for Congress as a Trump-boosting Republican, showed up on Fox News on Monday night for the sole purpose of backing President Donald Trumps baseless accusation that Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is taking secret memory-enhancing drugs to assist his debate performance.
Over the past year, Fox News host Sean Hannityan informal adviser and close confidant of Trumpshas been at the forefront of conservative medias portrayal of Biden as a senile gaffe-machine suffering from severe cognitive decline. The president has latched onto this line of attack, describing the former vice president as Sleepy Joe while regularly claiming Biden doesnt possess the mental fitness for office.
With the first presidential debate approaching, however, the president has started to reset expectations for the ex-veeps performance. Over the past several weeks, Trump has suddenly begun accusing Biden of taking some mysterious performance-enhancing drug that can boost his memory and cognitive abilities, calling for Biden to be drug-tested before Tuesdays debate.
During Mondays broadcast of Hannitys primetime Fox News program, the host spent the majority of his opening monologue discussing the upcoming debate while replaying his attacks on Bidens mental acuity and cognitive abilities. At the same time, Hannity suggested the presidential hopeful could have a good debate performance because hes been preparing all summer.
Hannity then turned to Jackson, the former White House doctor who once said Trump could live to 200 if he changed his diet because he has good genes, to openly speculate about whether Biden is on a memory-assisting PED.

It's nice to know that Dr. Jackson is also a eugenicist.
